[FL717]

How bout this, there are some guys at PDT that used to drive
F-14's, some C-5 drivers, guys that were flying O-1's and O'2's in Vietnam, C-130 drivers that flew supplies into Khe Sahn, and all why you were still sh!tting yellow.

I see you flew 145's, where was that at?

First off I don't remember talking about you .. better yet... talking too you.
But I'll indulge you since you haven't a clue what you are talking about.. and that always amuses me. I never said anything about the pilots at PDT. My comment, (which once again was directed to my friend), was in regards to a very cranky reply from what appears to be a cranky person.

Fact - I WAS in the military, the key word.. WAS. I served proudly, and did what was asked of me. It was a relatively long time ago. I fly civilian now and that is whats relevant, and its what I feel I can contribute to. The military has changed dramatically since i got out, so I have nothing to add.

As far as where I flew ERJ-145's.. based on your comments about me sh!tting yellow.... why do you suddenly ask? If you're trying to make friends, that approach doesn't work. I will say its very possible you were sh!tting yellow while I was learning to fly, but I have no basis for that comment, so I'll let that one go by.

BuBye..

Hey Singlespeed:

"First off consider the source... a Dash-8 FO with 4500 hours sitting at PDT. You'd be cranky too."

You must have been talking about a "Mesa" Dash FO.

I put in time at PDT, and alot fine people are getting the heads served on a platter.

It just caught me the wrong way after the last 2 days I have had.

I dont know you, you could be a 15 year old kid, you could be a 60 year that is pissed becuase you just got booted out of you seat.

I have been on this board for about 3 years or so, and I found that getting into an arguement is about as useless as pissing in the wind.

Fly safe.

I understand. My comment was directed that if someone asks a relevant question, maybe a relevant reply is in order.

The people at PDT HAVE gotten shafted... many times over, and its not fair. I realize that. I also realize many are caught in a whirlpool that they cannot get out of. Some (not many) also are victims of career suicide by not waterproofing their careers, and getting too comfortable at what will always be a subsidary "regional".

These comments were not my intent in my original post to Singlespeed. My post stands, and I stand by it. It was a cranky reply to a legitimate question.

I hope today and tomorrow for you is better than the last 2 days.

Peace.

LR25,

Sorry I've been out building turbine PIC time, but I think the conversation you were having was with FL717. Please don't mix us up I have enough problems of my own.

I two to, oh sorry "too" was at PDT but saw the it coming and took off along time ago. I am only axing a simple question about PDT. If you don't know the answer thats ok I won't violate you I am not the FAA. That was a joke.

In my last to, too, sorry two post I was only being funny hahahaha not weird like... well enough said

Fly safe dude I'm out singlespeed has left the building

David Gannon, based in SBY

I would like to thank the Piedmont pilots who waited for my wife and I on a flight July 28 from CLT to CVG. US Air gave us 45 minutes between a Sint Maarten flight and the CVG connection. I don't know if anyone here has been to Sint Maarten but I have never left there on time. Anyway that was really cool for you guys to wait for us.

Al Corden is his name, I believe he went to USA 3000 where he is the DOT. Don't know if he is still there or not.
